Abstract
Xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (XGC) is an uncommon form of chronic cholecystitis characterized by the destructive accumulation of lipid-laden macrophages (xanthoma cells), fibrosis, and inflammatory infiltration. [1] While it often mimics gallbladder carcinoma both clinically and radiologically, rare cases may present with contiguous spread to adjacent organs such as the liver, leading to serious complications like abscess formation. [2] Early recognition is critical to guide appropriate management and avoid unnecessary radical surgery. [3]
